Organizations Filed Purposes: BethHaven is designed to provide a supervised family type residence for adults with severe and persistent mental illness. For more than 30 years BethHaven has provided top quality residential services for adults with severe and persistent mental illness in a home-like environment to the community of Colorado Springs. Our hope is to provide the minimal level of support necessary to allow our residents to succeed.

Provide residential care in a family structure for certain psychiatric patients.First and foremost, BethHaven provides structure and consistent routine to the daily life of its residents. One of the first components of a person's life that disintegrates with the onset of mental illness is the ability to organize their daily routine. We provide three healthy meals and three snacks every day, which are served at a consistent time. Menus are posted each week and residents have a say in what is served and what they want to eat. Our staff monitors medication and make sure that all medicine is administered properly and consistently on time every day. BethHaven also provides transportation to all medical appointments and manages the refilling of new and ongoing prescriptions. BethHaven guarantees that there is a well-trained and educated staff person available 24 hours a day. The staff is able to maintain a comfortable and calm living environment, can competently handle crisis situations and is available to just sit and listen to a resident if they need to talk.

Provide social development by improving residents self-image.One of the highlights of life at BethHaven is the activities program. We believe that this is an integral part of maintaining physical health and emotional sanity for people with mental illness. The residential coordinator oversees the activities and BethHaven provides transportation and supervision of all outings. The activities program is divided into two categories: fun, social outings and community service outings. During the past year BethHaven residents have gone to numerous movies, sporting events, bowling alleys, shopping malls, camping and hiking trips, work in the garden, scenic drives and coffee shops. These activities offer the opportunity to get exercise, see the beauty of Colorado and develop social skills in the community and amongst peers. Over the past few months BethHaven residents have also given their time to volunteering at Westside Cares, helping out with other non profits like NAMI and Pikes Peak United Way, and giving back to the community of Colorado Springs. The activities program is an important balance of social fun and community service.
